Discover PC

Does doing a Discover PC from a secured card affect my chances in any way with chases 5/24 rule? In repairing my credit which I think is going well I have 4 cards. 2 secured cards and I’m an AU on a discover that has recently graduated. That card will probably be PC to take advantage of 5% categories. I just don’t want it to hurt my chances at my first big boy card with chase.

Also if a PC is done does discover send a new card or can the current cards be used?

 A Discover PC is quite seamless. You'll keep the same card and number, and it will only take
a few minutes. Remember to ask the CSR for a CLI after the PC. Good luck. Smiley Wink

Hi OP

 

I think your file may be to thin for a Chase card. What are your FICO scores? Do you have any unsecured bank cards that you’re not an AU on? Also, what your AAOA


|| AmX Cash Magnet $40.5K || NFCU CashRewards $30K || Discover IT $24.7K || Macys $24.2K || NFCU CLOC $15K || NFCU Platinum $15K || CitiCostco $12.7K || Chase FU $12.7K || Apple Card $7K || BOA CashRewards $6K

Re: Discover PC

I PC'd my secured Discover It to the 5% categories right after the 1st statement. 

Kept the same card and everything.

The day after statement #2 I activated the Q4 category.

About 2 more months and it should graduate hopefully.
